I keep worrying that the Left will try to do the same to President Trump: a bullet-filled impeachment process. Then all Hell would break loose.
… [JFK] is a powerful speaker with an appeal to the emotions. He leaves little doubt that his idea of the “challenging new world” is one in which the Federal Government will grow bigger and do more and, of course, spend more. I know there must be some short-sighted people in the Republican Party who will advise that the Republicans should try to “out-liberal” him. In my opinion, this would be fatal. […]If JFK backtracked on his plans, it might have been only temporary.
One last thought: Shouldn’t someone tag Mr. Kennedy’s bold new imaginative program with its proper age? Under the tousled boyish haircut is still old Karl Marx — first launched a century ago. There is nothing new in the idea of a Government being Big Brother to us all. Hitler called his “State Socialism”, and way before him, it was “benevolent monarchy.” …

“I was going to say that I don’t think many people even thought in terms such as Left or Right Wing back then.”
I agree with you. I don’t think such terms were popular until the great cultural divide beginnings in the latter part of the 60’s that continued on in the 70’s with the Democrats winning the Vietnam War*, getting the Roe Vs Wade decision and getting their first full retard/lefty president in office (Carter).
*The commies won, the dems are commies that made the falling of the South possible.
Still remember that day as if it was yesterday. Still gives me the chills. Flunked my physics test but aced chemistry. Was getting ready for Thanksgiving vacation at my friend’s house in Mobile, AL. Sophomore engineering student.

BWAHAHA,
Physics with calculus, I’m guessing?
Papa Joe K...wanted to be prez...he couldnt...so he pushed his sons...per the book Man Called Intrepid...Joe said he would sell his son to the u.s. like soapflakes....john was known womanizer...had bad back(both facts not revealed by starstruck media)...and Addisons disease...The whole Kennedy aura was a scam...he sorta did OK...but was really out of his league...the media controlling the narrative is an ongoing huge problem....need to get alternative sources of good intelligence untainted by advertisers..
My parents and grandparents did not think JFK tolerable. They thought him an amoral fraud, a liar, a flim-flam man, a man of low intellect, and an opportunist who did not have at heart, or even know the best interests of our country. His book was ghostwritten, his mythos invented by his father’s millions, his press conferences carefully scripted. They deplored the dishonest media-created Camelot myth that was born out of his death because it further empowered the utterly wicked LBJ and the wicked democrat party, empowered by decent people dazzled by the fairy glamour by the conjourings and spells of the evil magicians of Madison Avenue and of Hollywood, people who do not did not understand the darkness that had already consumed the democrat party, the darkness that has sought since the beginning of time to swallow up the world and kill it. And so JFK brought us LBJ, a creature of that darkness, who was many times more the evil man that JFK could ever have hoped to be, because JFK was a merely man of appetites, while LBJ understood the utter depravity of unredeemed human nature, and because it mirrored his own soul (if he had one.)
I apologize, a little bit for my wordiness, I have been reading the “Labyrinth of the Spirits,” I am getting a little bit carried away with an orgy of words rather than turkey this Thanksgiving Day. But the one thing that I am carrying away from this book, is that while I never really understand the civil war of Spain in the 1930s, is that the right evil won that war, even though I do not think the author thinks so. Spain’s fate could easily have been so much worse, and that the fruit of “the generalissimo” is a healthy country and a brilliance of Spanish literature, and the opposite is true of our country in these forsaken times.
The GOP is pretty darn evil, and it has done evil, and it will continue to do evil, but there is some light in it, and in the end, the light will prevail — if Donald Trump prevails!!!!
And LBJ hadn’t stolen his first Congressional election?
At dinner husband said same thing.
No mention of jfk. No movies. Nothing.
Yup.
I always like to imagine that it was Nixon that Oswald shot, and that there is an eternal flame at his grave. Picture that, liberals.
Your post #50 was just what I think with the minor exception that I think JFK was pretty smart.
He should have not pressed for information on the EBE’s/Roswell, it’s a very tight loop.
Blackmun, the creator of Roe v. Wade, was a Nixon appointee.
Oswald and Sirhan were the “power structure?”
It was the date of the very first Doctor Who episode.
